Roast Chicken in the Crock Pot image

I'm going to be using this a *lot this fall and winter. Two and a half hours in the old crock pot followed by a 10-minute broil gives me perfectly roast chicken every time

Time 13m

Yield 1 chicken

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 chicken (about 3 lbs give or take)
1/2 cup red wine or 1/2 cup white wine
3 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 small white onion
1 celery, cut in half
1 carrot, cut in half
1 dash herbes de provence, thyme or 1 dash herbs, combination of your choice

Steps:

  • Crumple three pieces of aluminum foil and place in the middle of your slow cooker.
  • Add wine, garlic, onion, celery and carrot.
  • Place chicken on top of aluminum foil. (You may have to push the chicken down a bit so it'll all fit in there!).
  • Sprinkle chicken with herbs, salt and pepper.
  • Set slow cooker to high and cook for 1/2 hour per pound.
  • When ready, stick a meat thermometer into leg to ensure it is done. Transfer chicken to a roasting pan and set oven to 500ยบ Fahrenheit.
  • Roast for 8-10 minutes, or until skin is golden brown.
  • Serve with roast root vegetables, mashed potatoes, or anything else you'd like!
  • The best part of this recipe? After your done cooking everything, you'll have a considerable amount of jus left over from the chicken. Whisk it with some cornstarch for a truly delicious gravy, or save it in your fridge or freezer for at-the-ready soup stock when you need it in a pinch. (It's so much better than bouillon.).
